Hi all,
I am doing a project for one of my classes about saddles and I wanted to get more info on the toulose saddles. I have the premia and the aachen and l love them but I wanted to get more background on the company itself, but I can’t find the toulose website. Can anyone find the link or do they just not have one?
Thanks!
It’s Toulouse.
M. Toulouse is a brand name, but it’s not a company. To draw a parallel from a product world that most of us know, Victoria’s Secret is a brand owned and administrated by the larger conglomerate company called Limited Brands.
Anyway, the brand M. Toulouse is distributed in the US by Intec Performance Gear, a distributor of multiple tack brands. Intec is based in New Jersey (as are many other tack distributors…not a coincidence since a lot of import/export stuff from Britain and Argentina comes in through New York/New Jersey):

The M. Toulouse saddles are manufactured by Cueros Santa Cruz, an Argentinian saddle manufacturer and distributor who makes saddles for many different brands. Up in Canada, you’ll often see the US M. Toulouse designs being sold directly under the Santa Cruz name.

Calling Cueros Santa Cruz in Buenos Aires might be a stretch for a school project, but if you want to talk to someone who’s been to the Santa Cruz manufacturing facility to consult on the Toulouse Pro saddles, talk to Lynnda at Classic Saddlery in Michigan. She’s an outspoken character, for sure.
